Breeder Referral Program

The CWVC Breeder Referral is a service provided to assist puppy buyers with finding a Vizsla breeder. To be placed on the list, CWVC members must provide the Breeder Referral Chair with their contact information, the OFA certificates of sire and dam for specific breedings, registered names and call names of the dogs being bred and the approximate timing of the litter.  The CWVC does not endorse, recommend nor guarantee any particular breeder whether on the list or not.

The CWVC relies on the ethics and honesty of individual.  We highly recommend puppy buyers still take steps to ensure the breeder is reputable as described in "How to Find a Quality Vizsla and Reputable Breeder". Responsible Vizsla breeders do the following:

1. Adhere to the Vizsla Club of America (VCA) Code of Ethics.
   
2. Test and ensure their Vizslas are cleared of hip dysplasia after two years of age and receives an OFA Certificate (with numbers) from the Orthopedic Foundation of Animals (OFA).
   
3. Strive to breed according to the AKC Breed Standard for the Vizsla, drafted and approved by the Vizsla Club of America.
   
4. Know the pedigrees of their own dogs well and will share pedigree information (such as health and temperament) with prospective buyers.
   
5. Can explain why a particular breeding seeks to improve upon the dam and sire's characteristics.
   
6. Introduce you to their Vizsla family and show you where a litter is being whelped and raised.
   
7. Provide a written agreement for your review prior to sale.
   
8. Provide AKC registration papers, a signed written agreement and a veterinary health certificate upon sale.
   
9. Provide support to puppy buyers for the life of the dog.
   

It is the policy of the CWVC to not provide referrals for stud dogs/sires or brood bitches/dams for breeding purposes. The selection of an appropriate mate depends on the traits and ancestry of each individual dog and potential mate as described in "Should I Breed My Vizsla" and in the "Breeder Guidelines". Take the time to do your research!
